Li Yuanyi’s Heart Stirring
On the second day, Yue Wang had left early . Before leaving, he warned Steward Qin that if anything happened in Bu Xian Luo, he must ensure Mu Yunyao’s safety .
Naturally, Steward Qin agreed and arranged for people to set up in Jin Xiu Garden carefully .
It was just as Mu Yunyao expected . Li Yuanyi did not come on the second day . Ming Yin followed Mu Yunyao’s instructions and directly pretended to fall into the water . After that, she said that she wouldn’t be entertaining the guests until recovering from her illness .
That night, Li Yuanyi sent his entourage to visit Ming Yin . He even sent in a lot of medicinal herbs and telling her to recuperate well .
Ming Yin said thanks in a hurry, but she returned the medicine .
When Li Yuanyi heard his entourage’s report, he felt his mind shake and kept recalling the scene when he saw Ming Yin that day .
When Li Munian came to see him in this state, he could not help but advise him: “Bu Xian Luo is different from other places . Moreover, you came here to verify the salt tax, so It’s really not appropriate to have any further complications . If you really take a fancy to Ming Yin . When the matter settled, I will think of a way to send her to your house . ”
“Don’t worry, Nephew . Naturally, I know what I’m doing . ” He loved beauties and enjoyed pursuing them . Otherwise, with his status, as long as he opened his mouth, people would send a lot of beauties straight to his bed . That would be much less fun . Li Munian is a bit unhappy . He knew Li Yuanyi, but he doesn’t like Li Yuanyi’s style of conduct and behavior . According to seniority, Li Munian should call this person ‘Uncle’, so he could not say many things unpleasantly: “I wonder when Uncle will be leaving for Yangzhou city?” Compared to Jingling City, those cities south of Yangzhou City and Suzhou City were the main points of verification . Li Yuanyi smiled unpredictably: “Right now, it will take some time to investigate the salt tax in the inner core of Jingling City . There are also salt merchants coming to Yangzhou City to take care of it, so I hope that we can examine it more carefully . Furthermore, I have heard some rumors, so I cannot rush to Yangzhou City and can only stay in Jingling City for more time . ”
If the salt merchants had not gone crazy, they would not have wanted Li Yuanyi to examine them more carefully . Now that they said it this way, they only wanted him to stay in Jingling City for a while to give the salt merchants time to prepare comprehensively . It seemed like there must be a big problem with the salt policy this time .
Li Munian’s eyes lit up, “Uncle, what do you mean?”
“That’s right . I will check it out slowly and give the merchants some time to make perfect preparation . In other words, I’ll have sold the salt merchants for their blessings . In the future, we can say that their benefits are limitless . ” His purpose this time was to help the First Prince rope in these salt merchants so that he could extract more from them in the future . He did not expect that he would be here just a moment, and there was good news coming from Jingling City .
Li Munian was very happy, so he reminded Li Yuanyi, “Although it’s good news, Uncle must also be extra careful, in case there’s any trickery involved . After all, the salt merchant is cunning, and the water in it is too deep . If you are careless, the ship may capsize in the gutter . ”
“Nephew, don’t worry . I will come and discuss it with you if there’s any news . There definitely won’t be any mistakes . ” Since this was an important matter, he naturally had to pull Li Munian along . It also meant that he had the support of Prime Minister Li behind him, and both he and the First Prince had huge advantages .
“Fine . If I can’t make up my mind, I will send a message to the Capital, asking Father for guidance . ”
Li Munian and Li Yuanyi were happily chatting with each other . Before he left, Li Munian had left behind his two beautiful female attendants, but Li Yuanyi was worried about Ming Yin . He looked at the two female attendants in front of him again and felt that they were just ordinary women, not that elegant and refined aura that Ming Yin had .
“It seems that I’ll have to pay a personal visit tomorrow . ”
The next day, Li Yuanyi bitterly waited until the afternoon before he packed up and headed to Bu XIan Luo . When he arrived, he did not see Ming Yin but was welcomed by Shopkeeper Qin, “Greetings, Lord Li . How about Yun Chun makes you some tea today?”
Yun Chun came forward and greeted, “Greetings, Lord Li . ” Yun Chun has a delicate appearance, delicate eyebrows, with a trace of sassy air when he moves in a line . Under the contrast of her white clothes, she gave off a refreshing feeling . Usually, Li Yuanyi would definitely be touched by this, but with Ming Yin in front of him, he actually felt like there was nothing else in his eyes . This kind of feeling hasn’t appeared on him for a long time, and it made him even more curious about it . All these years, there had been a lot of beauties around him, but not many could truly move his heart . Ming Yin was the first one that had worried him so much, so he was increasingly unwilling to give up, “Shopkeeper Qin, I did not come here to drink tea . Instead, I heard that something had happened to Miss Ming Yin, and I hope to be able to visit her . ”
Steward Qin appeared to be troubled, “About this . . . To tell Lord Li the truth, ever since Miss Ming Yin’s incident, there has been an endless stream of customers who have come to visit me, but Miss Ming Yin has not seen anyone . Although she is Si Cha’s Bu Xian Luo, she has signed a contract at the beginning, and I can’t force her to do it . ”
“So that’s the case . Then, may I ask Shopkeeper Qin to ask Miss Ming Yin if she is willing to see me?”
Steward Qin was surprised for a moment before he nodded his head . With a smile, he said, “That’s fine . I’ll ask Yun Chun to go and inquire about it . If Miss Ming Yin is willing, that would be for the best . ”
Looking at his expression, Li Yuanyi could not help but smile and secretly thought that Shopkeeper Qin would do something: “Then I’ll have to trouble you, Shopkeeper Qin . Consider this as me owing you a favor . ” Naturally, he didn’t mind indebted to Shopkeeper Qin as he was after Ming Yin .
The smile on Steward Qin’s face became even wider as he served the best tea to Li Yuanyi and waited with him .
After he has two cups of tea, Yun Chun came back with an awkward expression . “Greetings, Lord Li . Miss Ming Yin is not feeling well, so she doesn’t wish to see you right now . Please forgive me . ”
Li Yuanyi frowned, feeling displeased in his heart . At the same time, he had a strong desire for victory . “Since that’s the case, I will come again another day . ” After this, he walked out .
Yun Chun, however, quickly followed . “Lord Li, please wait a moment . Actually, Ming Yin wishes to meet you . It’s just that …”
Li Yuan stopped walking and said unhappily, “Since she wants to see me, are you trying to make things difficult for me?”
“Yun Chun would never dare to do so, and I am not to speak clearly . Follow me . I’ll show you, and you’ll understand . ” Yun Chun clenched her teeth and brought Li Yuanyi to the backyard of Jin Xiu Garden .
At this moment, flowers were blooming in the backyard . The luxuriant purple and red flowers were looking extremely prosperous and beautiful .
At the end of a large garden, there was the sound of running water . A pavilion was built on the surface of the water, giving it an extraordinarily elegant appearance . In the pavilion, near the water source, Ming Yin was leaning against the railing, one hand on her chin, lost in thought as she gazed at the water surface .
At this moment, she was wearing a white skirt that reached all the floors . As the wind blew past her, her sleeves gently fluttered, giving off the impression that she was riding on the wind . Li Yuanyi looked at her from afar . Looking at her pale but delicate face, he could only feel his heart worrying for her . “Miss Ming Yin …”
